1(f) Coal is often transported by ship. To what extent is this the best way of moving 6 Up to 2 marks for describing coal
coal? Give reasons for your answer. being transported by ship

Sea transport by ship is a cheap way of carrying low value bulky goods such as coal Up to a further 2 marks for
over long distances. If large ships are used to carry coal the unit cost per tonne of analysing sea transport with other
coal transported is very low. Ships and barges have access to many parts of the types of transport
world, travelling from port to port, loading and offloading coal. Ships can be delayed
by weather. The documentation is complex for sea transport. Up to a final 2 marks for evaluating
the extent to which transport by ship
Rail can be used to move large quantities of coal and is cheap/fast for long distances. is the best way of moving coal
Rail is generally less polluting than ship. However, both require transhipment
whereas road transport can be door-to-door. Many trucks would be needed to carry
the same amount of coal as can be carried on one train or ship. Trucks can cause
traffic congestion and cause safety concerns on the roads. Rail, road and canal/river
transport require infrastructure to operate.

Air transport is too expensive for bulky/heavy goods like coal.

Evaluation example:
If transport is needed close to the coal mine then road or rail transport are fine, but
for longer distances either ship or rail would be better. It depends on where the coal
is being moved to/from. If there is easy access to a seaport then some form of sea
transport would be best, but between land-locked countries rail might be a more
environmentally friendly option than road.
